Zabaan always encourages and inspires me as I learn Hindi. If you are a Hindi lesson hopper, Zabaan will be the final destination. Highly recomended to learners of any level. As a gratitude to Zabaan teachers, I dedicate this poem, written great assistance with ChatGPT 🙂इल्म का गुलज़ार है, ये प्यारी सी ज़बान, हर लफ़्ज़ में खिलती है, उजाली सी ज़बान।हिन्दी बांसुरी की, कन्हैया की तान, उर्दू की नरमी है, हसीना की ज़बान।जो पूछे इल्म का, है क्या सरचश्मा, मुस्कान से कहें हम, ये प्यारी सी ज़बान।दिल्ली के शोर में, इक ख़ामोश दीया, रातों को चमके ये, उजली सी ज़बान।रुख़्सत के लम्हों में, बाँधी थी इक गाँठ, वतन में खोलेंगे, यादों की अपनी ज़बान।तोशिको का सलाम, उन उस्तादों के नाम, जिनसे महकती है, ये दिलकश सी ज़बान।

My Urdu classes at Zabaan school for languages have been very good so far. Riya is an amazing teacher who makes it easy to understand grammar and to focus on all parts of language learning, including speaking and writing. I‘m very happy with my choice.

Can't recommend highly enough. I took three weeks of a four week elementary Hindi intensive, and was in a small group of three students. Classes ran in the mornings Monday to Friday, leaving plenty of time for revision and other activities. Three teachers shared the classes, and each was in their own way very sensitive to the task of teaching foundational Hindi from English, with enough of the kind of hooks/sidenotes/nods to complexity that keep you engaged. The school itself is a fun place, there's a bit of an infectious love of language learning ... and its very very close to a metro station!

I took an intensive beginner Hindi course with Zabaan for a month in Delhi in 2019. The teachers were incredibly knowledgeable and dedicated. The course was fast paced but comprehensive. Since returning to Australia I have begun online lessons with Rachayta. She is a fantastic teacher who is able to explain the origin and cultural context of words. She has made Hindi grammar easier to understand with plenty of examples; and she caters the lessons to my interests. I highly recommend learning Hindi at Zabaan.

Ahmad
With over 10 years of teaching experience, I am a dedicated language tutor specializing in Pashto, Dari (Farsi), and English. My passion for languages drives me to create engaging and effective lessons tailored to the unique needs of each student. I believe that language learning is not just about vocabulary and grammar, but also about understanding culture and context, which I incorporate into my teaching approach.
As a language learner myself, currently studying Arabic and Urdu, I understand the challenges and joys that come with acquiring a new language. This perspective allows me to empathize with my students and adapt my methods to enhance their learning experience. I utilize a variety of resources, including interactive activities, multimedia materials, and real-life conversation practice, to make each lesson dynamic and enjoyable.
My goal is to foster a supportive learning environment where students feel confident and motivated to reach their language goals, whether for personal growth, travel, or professional advancement. I am committed to helping my students not only learn a language but also embrace the culture and nuances that come with it.
Let’s embark on this language journey together!
